When Alex looks back on his life on Days of Our Lives, we’ve got a feeling he’s going to split it up into two eras. There was before the wedding and after. Because now that Theresa’s lies have come to light — after the two tied the knot, sadly — nothing is ever going to be quite the same in his life or even in Alex himself.

When Robert Scott Wilson talked with Soap Opera Digest, he confirmed that Alex and Theresa are definitely done. (Which we pretty much got by him wasting no time in going for an annulment.)

“There’s no coming back from this,” he said. “She’s a bad person. She got the best of Alex, but now her time is up.” (Read how it all went down in our recap of Monday’s episode.)

But that’s not the only seismic change in Alex’s life now. Because we sure can’t forget how insufferable Alex was once he got power and money. He turned his back on Justin, the man who raised him (and has always been his true dad), gleefully took over Titan and reveled in the power, and went about throwing his inheritance around like a spoiled brat.

“Alex is a narcissistic guy,” Wilson admitted to SOD. “He doesn’t ever want to be wrong. He thought he had all this power and money and all of a sudden he just looks like the biggest fool out there.”

That’s to put it mildly. There’s just no way around it. Alex is embarrassed. He’s been humbled. We suggested yesterday that it may be time for Alex to switch out for Ben, but it may not take that much to pull him back from the brink of being irredeemable as a character.

The good news is, this whole experience has made him, according to Wilson, “a bit kinder and gentler. He’s also quietly stronger and quietly sharper.”
